Chapter 68: Waiting for the price to sell
Magnificent carriages entered the new city.
The carriages of these carriages depicted the family coats of arms of the nobility.
A sword, or a shield, or a rose, or a lion.
Bella is no longer a small fishing village by the sea.
But even so, there have never been such battles here.
The knight rode a well-groomed mane, and the glow of the setting sun gilded the bright silver armor with a warm orange glow.
'Da Da Da Da'
The sound of horses' hooves is so neat.
Such a team attracted passers-by in the new city to watch and discuss.
Compared with the 'passers-by' who are enthusiastic about this line of aristocracy, the hair of the knight sitting on horseback is standing on end.
The dragon god is above!
What did they see?
That's a troll, right?? What are the trolls doing? Selling fruit? Is there something wrong?
Why are there gargoyles over there? What is the gargoyle doing? Cleaning the door of the shop?
What's that? Why did the flower spirit that just passed by hold hands with the dragon dragonborn?
Eaters, ogres are buying vegetables?!
Shouldn't ogres be more interested in the old man who sells vegetables?!
You're a cannibal! Put down the vegetables in your hands and don't try to disguise them!
I was worried all the way, and finally I didn't encounter any vicious incidents of monsters frantically killing the convoy on the road.
As the knights entered the city, the city guard showed them the way.
Along this road, they silently watched the 'street scene' that constantly refreshed their three views all the way, and finally arrived at their destination - the teleportation hall.
The teleportation hall here is the only way to reach the ideal country legally.
And, the ideal township, has already prepared people to welcome the 'VIPs' here.
Hearing the sound of horses' hooves and wheels from far and near, the Dragonborn general Miphaken, who had been assigned this mission, spewed two hot breaths from his nose.
"Stand upright!"
The sound of the Dragonborn honor guard bumping their boots was very pleasant to listen to.
Only the army is home, and only the comrades-in-arms and subordinates of the army are family!
He doesn't need any love, what marriage, hum!
Duo'er's ruthless flower spirit actually got along with Horn!
Damn it! Is that to say he's inferior to that bastard Horn?!
"Boys, show your momentum, let the soft-footed shrimp from the imperial capital see our momentum!"
The Dragonborn elite held their heads high.
This time, Mifarken brought all the elite of the Dragonborn who were more than two and a half meters tall.
Their eyes were fierce, they were tall and burly, and their bodies were covered in legendary dragon costumes, such a team, even if it was only a hundred, could rival the ordinary army of 10,000 people in the empire.
Sensing the Dragonborn's aura, the horses of the convoy began to agitate.
The mounts of the knights are all war horses that have been on the battlefield, and they can only continue to move forward under appeasement.
The knight who took the lead was alert.
Sure enough, when he walked to the teleportation hall, he finally found the 'culprit' who was terrorizing the horses.
A hundred elite Dragonborn soldiers standing in two columns.
The knight at the head almost vomited blood, he looked at the other party's shiny legendary dragon costume, as if it was just a basket of lemons, and his heart was sour.
What's even more unfortunate is that the war horse under his seat is shocked.
'Sigh Rule'——!
When the Dragonborns looked at the knight holding the banner of the nobleman's crest.
The knight's mount raised its front hooves and neighed, nearly throwing the knight off his back several times.
The chirping of the horses and the abruptly stopped carriage disturbed the noble ladies in the carriage, who were curious about the people and things related to the ideal country.
Ignoring the dissuasion of the servants, the ladies opened the door of the carriage and stepped down.
In a carriage at the head of the convoy sat Christine Aifa.
When the aristocratic girl stepped out of the car, the first thing she saw was Miphaken, the most conspicuous of the Dragonborn.
She smiled lightly, like a camellia blooming.
Because they were officially invited by Charlie to the White Castle for a banquet, these noble ladies wore gorgeous court dresses.
Christine, carrying her long skirt like a cheerful bird, ran towards Mifarken.
This move startled her guardian knights, and they hurriedly intervened to stop them.
"Danger! Miss Ayifa! ”
"I know him, it's fine!"
Miphaken remembered the human, but he couldn't remember the name, maybe it was Kona or something......
"General, it's a pleasure to see you again." After Christine finished speaking, she lifted her skirt to Mifalken and performed a standard court etiquette.
Mifarken scratched his face.
Well, this one is a bit fierce.
Marshal Theon's order to get off the horse, to the extent just now, is it enough?
The tall Dragonborn leaned over slightly.
His dragon-like and lizard-like face approached Christine.
This action almost frightened the knights of the Aifa family to draw their swords one after another.
"Hello, Miss Nobleman of Mankind."
"Christine, call me Christine, General Mifarken." Christine was not afraid of Miphaken at all, but with a gentle smile, she tolerated the fact that the other party did not remember her name.
"The time is up, I'll escort you to the White Castle."
Christine looked at the portal behind her, a little disappointed in her heart.
After experiencing the feeling of being brought to Floating City by the Dragonborn last time, she thought she could relive it this time!
Although, today's attire is somewhat out of place.
"I still miss the feeling of the last time the general took me to the ideal township, and I regret that I can't experience it again this time." Christine said regretfully.
Mifarken: "??? ”
Last time we were scaring you, girl!
Christine looked at the other party's vertical pupils turned into a thin thread because of her stunnedness, and suddenly understood what she had misunderstood.
"Sorry, I shouldn't have been overly demanding......"
Looking at the girl's smile, Mifarken seemed to see the camellia withered, and he coughed lightly.
"Ahem, in this way, this young lady, you can let the noble ladies behind you go first."
After saying that, Mifarken secretly gestured to Christine.
Christine's eyes lit up, she turned around and said to her family knight, "You go first, I'll be there later!" ”
Although the knights were worried, their eldest lady glared, and they had to comply with the knights' rules.
When the last carriage disappeared into the light of the portal, Miphaken walked up to Christine, crouched down, and easily picked up the noble lady who liked 'adventure' and 'excitement'.
Then, with a 'whoosh', the strong Dragonborn rushed into the sky with the human nobles in his arms.
……
As soon as Charlie returned to the White Castle and entered the door, he began to ask Anne eagerly, "How is the dinner party going?" ”
"We did as you said, removing the long banquet table and placing the food on the small tables."
"These tables have empty plates and cutlery."
"That's what you call a buffet, master?"
Take me to see it first.
The black dragon didn't sleep anymore, and raised his head, his golden eyes were a little curious.
His Dragon Hall Steward is always able to come up with something new.
Anne led Charlie to the ballroom.
Looking at the empty space in the middle that is large enough, there are some sofas and chairs on the wall for people to rest.
There is also the most eye-catching buffet in the venue.
That's right, the buffet party is the ideal idea for this checkup.
There are enough dishes on the banquet table, but girls are always embarrassed to let the waiters add dishes for themselves.
Pull in the feelings, start by having fun and enjoying the food!
After all, everyone will be neighbors in the future, compared to the previous city lord Kendiwen in Medi City, Charlie is more like letting the girls who had afternoon tea together last time be his new neighbors.
From a certain point of view, she and these aristocratic ladies who have no inheritance rights are the 'community of interests'.
Thinking about it, Charlie had already walked in front of a fruit roast suckling pig.
The belly of the suckling pig is stuffed with a variety of roasted and fragrant fruits, and the golden crispy pork skin flowing with fragrant hot oil, and the hot air on the face carries the aroma of barbecued meat, which makes people can't help but secrete saliva.
Charlie swallowed.
"Whose craft is this, it's very good!"
"I think it's a new chef who came to help, but I was worried that there wouldn't be enough people in the castle, so I hired a chef from a restaurant in the new city."
As she spoke, a third-class maid came in small steps, and she saluted Charlie, and then said, "Your guests, Lord Earl, have arrived. ”
Charlie then took his eyes off the fragrant roast suckling pig, "Let's go~ to greet our guests~ and then you can taste these delicacies~!" ”
In order to show his enthusiasm for the guests, Charlie specially walked out of the White Castle to greet him.
Some of the town hall officials have arrived, and they need to follow Charlie to greet the dignitaries.
Seeing the gorgeous carriage and the guards and knights in front of the carriage, Charlie felt that his greeting battle here was a little shabby?
Will it make the guests feel that the ideal village is 'very cold'?
"Uh, Nao, isn't our battle a little shabby?" Charlie asked in a low voice.
At this time, the secretary general, who would definitely be standing behind Charlie, looked ahead, his lips suppressed the amplitude, and he replied in a low voice:
"No, Lord Theon submitted an application, and Mifarken led a group of Dragonborn elites to meet him in the new city."
Nao kept his gaze still, pursed his lips, and added, "You signed this document yesterday afternoon." ”
Charlie: "......"
At that time, her brain could not keep up with the movements of her hands at all.
Now that I think about it, I don't remember what I signed yesterday......
Thinking about the style of Theon's application, the corners of Charlie's mouth twitched slightly.
I feel even more empty!
The carriage stopped at the edge of the red carpet, and then the ladies of the nobility, dressed in the long dresses of the ornate court, stepped down.
In the greeting team, the air pressure around the White Rose Mentor instantly dropped.
She looked at the disciple who was accustomed to wearing men's clothes, and narrowed her beautiful eyes slightly.
Perhaps, it's good to let your own apprentices be with these girls more!
The black dragon looked at the shiny jewels of the noble ladies, and then at Charlie's empty neck, and at a pair of bare hands.
Aside from his own black gold ring, this guy is really shabby.
Thinking of the black gold ring, ordinary people can't see it, and the black dragon's face sank a little more.
The black dragon squinted slightly, he occasionally looked at the gorgeous jewelry worn by these noble ladies, and occasionally looked at the head of the Dragon Hall who had nothing in his house, and he also had some thoughts in his heart.
"Welcome to the White Castle, beautiful young ladies." Charlie stepped forward and said eagerly.
She held out her hand, wanting to shake hands with the somewhat reserved aristocratic lady.
At the same time, the other party lifted the hem of his skirt and made a court curtsy.
Charlie: "......"
Ladies of the nobility: "......"
So, the ladies stretched out their palms a little bewildered.
For such etiquette, they tried it for the first time and were a little at a loss.
But after Charlie shook hands with one of these celebrities, everyone knew what to do and shook hands with Charlie.
Until the last young lady, she had some sorrow on her face, and Charlie, who was keenly aware of it, took the initiative to ask understandingly:
"Is there anything I can do to help you, my honored guest?"
The secretary behind her was slightly in agreement, and when he was about to finish his work in the afternoon, he gave you all the information of these noble ladies.
Why, she still can't remember people's names?!
"I'm sorry to worry you, but have you seen Christine?"
"Who?" Charlie was a little confused.
The other side was even more alarmed, "She asked me for us to come first...... But she's with a Dragonborn, and I'm ......."
Before the young lady could finish speaking, Charlie raised his head and looked at the sky.
Something is descending sharply.
The knights of the convoy all drew their swords and protected their young ladies, but Charlie saw the comer.
There was some surprise on his face.
"Miffaken?"
And what is he holding?
With a bang, Miffacon landed and retracted his wings, his massive feet leaving two deep pits in the carefully manicured lawn of the White Castle.
After he stood firm, he put down the noble lady who was protecting him in his arms.
Christine clutched her still beating heart, and after standing firm, she didn't forget to lift the hem of her skirt and thank Mifarken, "Thank you!" General Miphaken! ”
Mifaken only said 'um', then walked over to Salute Charlie and report that the task had been successfully completed.
Theon, who was standing in the greeting procession, nodded slightly.
He felt that Miphaken had done a good job, and that showing the Dragonborn's air attack capabilities in this way would indeed be a better deterrent to these nobles.
Charlie was even more curious about why the noble lady 'flew over'.
"Christine! Dragon God, how did you 'fly here'!? ”
"Miss Aifa, you are so 'cunning'! I knew I wanted to come over like this! The appearance is gorgeous! ”
Charlie also remembered who this aristocratic woman who looked a little familiar.
In the last tea party, she was one of the most optimistic.
She took the opportunity to invite Mifarken: "Mifarken, if it's okay later, stay and enjoy dinner, there is roast suckling pig today~"
Miffacen's tail wagged sharply, but he still looked at his boss, Theon, who was standing behind Charlie.
The army is like this, and those who obey are always their superiors.
Theon was satisfied with the 'deterrence' of his subordinates just now, so he nodded.
Anyway, if you want to guard, there's Klaus them.
Charlie was very happy, everyone was together, which meant that the buffet could start, so she raised her voice a little and said:
"Everyone, we have time to chat today, it's not early, let's talk about these things while enjoying food in the banquet hall!"
The crowd followed Charlie into the White Castle.
This is the first time these aristocratic ladies have walked into the 'White Castle' that they have read about countless times in the Goblin Daily.
In the past, I always heard the men around me say how the magnificence of the 'White Castle' was exaggerated.
In fact, when they saw this huge white castle in the carriage, they had silently compared it to the Platinum Palace in the imperial capital.
Walking into the White Castle, the layout inside made them smack their tongues.
These women have wanted to be prosperous and rich since they were children.
Some can even enter and exit the palace every once in a while, and then organize the good things in the world, they have been reading and seeing since they were children.
But what shocked them was that everything here was full of the smell of foreign culture.
The murals on the walls are the same, they have never seen or heard of them, but they can also see the artistic value in them.
Anne followed Charlie, but always paid attention to the looks of these noble ladies around her.
Seeing their surprised expressions from time to time, her heart was full of pride.
This is her master, this is the White Castle!
Check it out! The soil buns of the imperial capital~!
Until the maid pushed open the banquet hall.
didn't see the banquet table inside, and all the celebrities were stunned.
Earlier, they had discussed who Charlie would put in the second seat, Miss Ayfa or Miss Dobbert......
Outcome......
Charlie had already begun to introduce the buffet to the ladies with great interest, and she demonstrated it herself, and while explaining, she picked up an empty plate and walked to the long-awaited roast suckling pig.
The waiter cut a few slices for her onto a plate.
"Dear young ladies, this is the buffet, what do you want to eat, walk in front of the food, the waiters here will serve you~"
Along with the food, there is also soothing music.
Music relieves tension.
When the song "Saint-Saëns Swan Lake" was played, the roast suckling pig on Charlie's plate had been swept away by Xiao Hei.
As a result, he also glanced at his mouth in disgust.
Compared to these, he prefers the delicacies that Charlie tosses out that he has never eaten.
Soon, the officials at the White Castle followed Charlie's example and used empty plates to get their favorite delicious food.
People who come out of the ideal township have the strongest ability to accept new things.
After that, the aristocratic ladies went to fetch food with some restraint.
Charlie watched them.
For the most part, these aristocratic ladies took roast suckling pigs.
Is it because they all like this dish?
Charlie shook his head slightly.
The answer is that they take what they take.
At first, Charlie gave them the idea to move all of them to the vicinity of Bella, not only because he sympathized with these noble women who had no inheritance.
She thinks about problems, but she is still used to starting from her own interests.
These girls came to the vicinity of Bella, and they all paid a great price.
But just these costs, Charlie will not be moved to help them unconditionally.
In other words, Charlie had several plans in mind, and she knew why these girls couldn't wait to meet her.
However, there are many sets of cooperation plans, and for each set, the amount of profit that these noble ladies can make is also different.
Charlie is observing these young ladies at the moment, and he is also choosing himself and the 'future partner' of the ideal township.
And what these noble ladies don't know is that since they met, their every move has been constantly evaluated by Charlie.
